Now, that was stupid, hair pulling in the box.

Not a great penalty but it counts.

@DuncinToffee So weird, wasn't it - it's like with Cucurella the other day! What is it with the hair pulling?

Lovely goal, game on.

Brand needs to be careful - she has been lunging in a lot and is now on a yellow.

Another goal disallowed for France. Dramatic game

France have no luck.

And more drama.

And another missed penalty

Another botched pen - what's going on?!

This is a weird game.

There are going to be sore legs tomorrow the way the tackles are flying in

Did they say 13 scored, 14 missed?

Yep - that stat shocked me, too. It should be relatively rare for a penalty to be missed, and the botched ones have mostly been badly hit rather than down to phenomenal saves.

What a save!

Berger rattled herself with that save.

Berger has been really impressive (watch me jinx her now by saying that!)

The best save I’ve ever seen in men’s and women’s footy.

Why a short corner!?

Penalties

Any bets on how many penalties will be missed? 😬

I was gonna ask that very question.

Oooh, top bins with the second German pen - utter perfection. What the hell was that 90 degree run up by the first French taker though?

as soon as she went off on her stroll you just knew she would miss

Proper penalties
